Repelling Ice Ring

This was no longer a simple offensive soul skill, but a devastating weapon that perfectly combined cutting, freezing, and area coverage.

He could not let it fully take shape!

"Roar—!"

Yu Tianheng threw back his head and let out a long roar. Forcibly suppressing the injuries and chill within him, he poured every last bit of Soul Power from his Dragon's Fury state into both claws.

The deep-blue phantom of a thunder dragon grew more solid, nearly becoming tangible.

"Take my final strike!"

He stomped hard against the ground and shot into the sky like a cannonball, aiming directly at Snow White in the heart of the tornado.

This strike contained all his strength and will.

If he won, he might still have a sliver of hope.

If he lost...

"Your courage is admirable."

Snow White's voice came from within the tornado, still calm.

Faced with Yu Tianheng's desperate attack, she finally fully unleashed her Martial Soul.

The Ice Snow Swan phantom behind her completely solidified. Its elegant neck rose high, while the crystalline crown atop its head shone brilliantly.

The fourth Soul Ring beneath her feet lit up.

It was not an attack.

Nor was it a defense.

It was an icy-blue ring of light spreading outward.

The ring was not fast. It simply expanded calmly, freezing the air wherever it passed, solidifying lightning, even seeming to slow time itself.

The instant Yu Tianheng's soaring figure touched the ring, it was as though he had slammed into an invisible wall.

"Bang!"

His entire body was sent flying backward. His Dragon's Fury state was forcibly interrupted, and the thunder dragon phantom around him shattered inch by inch.

Even more terrifying, an irresistible force of ice surged into his body, frantically freezing his meridians and Soul Power.

"Th-this... what is this?"
